Kim Iversen

Please add Kim Iversen under #K: 

|-
| [[Kim Iversen]]
| The Kim Iversen Show
| {{Flag|US}}
| [[Progressive talk radio|Progressive]] journalist and radio host

The name of the show and the "progressive" detail are explained and sourced on the article. It's "only" a silver creator award so far, but she got the play button in less than nine months, and as of 2019 YouTube creator is her full time job. –84.46.53.86 (talk) 10:03, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

One day later, it's a border case, clearly you would not add, say, John Oliver, and ignore rewind.youtube 2018. Iversen is no Emma Blackery or Chamberlain, but you have Hannah Witton and Tom Scott listed, who are also "not only" YouTubers. –84.46.52.203 (talk) 19:57, 14 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
ExtremeRX replaced the flags by USA, United Kingdom, etc. everywhere two weeks ago: Please read USA instead of {{Flag|US}} above.
Untested, there could be a layout issue (horizontal space) for mobile devices, and that could be fixed by two-letter country codes US, UK, etc. –84.46.52.46 (talk) 13:20, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW, 200K subscribers in slightly less than one year. –84.46.53.207 (talk) 00:26, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Qualifies under the list requirements. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 01:09, 16 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, and for folks with an interest in YouTubers, I still consider to "downgrade" WikiProject YouTube from semi-active to dead, cf. Closing shop? The portal was deleted, a dead project offers no PROD/AFD/AFC/assessment/... help. Goodwill: SitC –84.46.53.255 (talk) 04:09, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Stefan Molyneux

I don't think Stefan Molyneux fits the criteria for a notable YouTuber. He just uses the platform and is infamous outside of YouTube. Thoughts? I'll leave this here for a while so others can weigh in before I potentially change it; I do recognize that he has a number of subscribers, but that isn't all we're looking for here, surely. Perennialpoet (talk) 19:49, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Almost 1M subscribers, but as you said, it's no popularity contest. The BLP has YouTuber in the first statement of the lede, right below {{infobox YouTube personality}}. The apologetic notes column in the list entry doesn't match the BLP, it could say far-right, white nationalist Canadian podcaster or something in this direction, e.g., known for Alt-right, racism and white supremacy. –84.46.53.228 (talk) 23:58, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Added on BLP/N without a {{BLP noticeboard}} here, because I don't know how blpo=yes cases are handled on BLP/N, if at all. –84.46.53.207 (talk) 00:44, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As you've mention our article says "far-right, white nationalist[2] Canadian podcaster and YouTuber who is known for his promotion of scientific racism and white supremacist views.[3][4][5][6][7]". I have the idea I checked these sources before for some reason, but in any case, if you have doubts you're welcome to check them and raise issues on the article talk page. Frankly the what you quote is far more generous to Molyneux but you're welcome to rework it. The anti-feminist stuff isn't discussed in the lead, but is discussion in the article body, with sources so could likely stay. Nil Einne (talk) 14:05, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Noting that while you can't edit the article directly, you're welcome to use the editprotected template. Come up with an exact proposed wording with sources so that someone can simply copy and paste your text, add the template and it's likely someone will make the change for you. Nil Einne (talk) 14:07, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Will do (=try if I can) when the BLP/N section is archived, and nobody here has done it yet. I hate race conditions, when an apparent consensus turns into a TOOSOON debate. –84.46.52.59 (talk) 21:44, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please update the Notes column for Stefan Molyneux using the info in the lede of the BLP as discussed above and on BLP/N: 

|far-right, white nationalist Canadian podcaster

–84.46.52.143 (talk) 22:38, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just in case, you can also use Alt-right, racism and white supremacy or whatever you like better than the current essay.
The SPLC source in the BLP has "anarcho-capitalist" as obsolete (limited to a decade starting in 2004), and Anarcho-capitalism is tagged with "insufficient context" + "confusing or unclear" + "needs additional citations" since July 2019. –84.46.52.200 (talk) 16:55, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Minecrafter0271 and LanHikari64: Reset to not done, the idea is to get rid of the anarcho capitalist essay. –84.46.53.137 (talk) 15:48, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I did it :) LanHikari64 (talk) 15:54, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Goldsztajn (talk) 15:41, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jimmy Dore

Please add Jimmy Dore under #J: 

|-
| [[Jimmy Dore]]
| The Jimmy Dore Show
| USA
| [[Alternative media (U.S. political left)|]] [[political satire]] and [[stand-up comedy]]

Intended for Jimmy Dore#See also. @Jaydoggmarco: 1RR context. –84.46.52.152 (talk) 05:36, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Interstellarity (talk) 16:01, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This is a "bring wikilink + rationale" list, if you want new rules please start a new thread, as this would require to delete almost all existing entries, cf. WP:BLP/N#List of YouTubers. –84.46.53.160 (talk) 09:38, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
An embedded Template:Infobox YouTube personality info on Jimmy Dore shows 655,000 subscribers + silver button. Genre political satire + medium stand-up comedy are also covered in the infobox, the lede has stand-up comedian. (Everything in the infobox + lede is by definition sourced, unsourced nonsense under 1RR rules is unlikely). A "far left" is attributed to CNN, and matches the Alternative media entry for Dore. –84.46.53.160 (talk) 09:55, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Latest + greatest style is "United States" instead of "USA" in all entries. Some bold folks simply implement new ideas here. –84.46.52.252 (talk) 18:09, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
